How to create a children’s bedroom on a budget
What Do You Really Need
When you start looking around the room, decide what you really need to update?

Take note of what you want to replace and what you want to update before you get started.

Storage
Whether you are storing clothes, toys or anything, you want to make sure there is somewhere to put it that keeps it out of sight and neat.

With very little work, you can have the storage spaces match the room without having to buy something custom.
Flooring
If new flooring isn’t an option right now, since it can be quite the expense, think about ways to refresh what you have. If the carpet or hardwood floor has seen better days, try to buy an area rug. These rugs can cover up the existing flooring and give the space a new look without the expense.
If that doesn’t seem like a good idea for your space, look into inexpensive flooring ideas. There are many creative ideas, like creating a paper bag floor or using reclaimed wood or even pallets to create a new floor. The internet offers lots of inexpensive flooring ideas.
Window Treatments and Bed Sets
Sometimes, giving a room a new look is as simple as some paint on the walls, new window treatments, and a matching bed set. Just these small touches make the room feel new.
Creating a new space that feels fresh and beautiful doesn’t have to break the bank. A few small changes can create a new look without the expense.
